Indications
The ASI is intended to treat hyperpronated foot and stabilize the subtalar joint. It is intended to prevent forward progression of the lateral talus and also prevent adduction and depression of the talus on the calcaneus, thus reducing excessive pronation and the resulting sequela. Examples include:
1. Flat foot treatment in children and adolescents Congential flat foot
2. Unsuccessful long-term orthopedic treatment (shoes, insoles…)
3. Tarsal coalitions (after resection of tarsal coalitions)
4. Painful flat foot
5. Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction
6. Paralytic flat foot
7. Subtalar instability
